Simply because I don't know whether GC happens while redisplay runs,
or the first time we call eval/funcall/whatever that checks whether GC
is due.  What I see is frequent GCs "about the same time" as
redisplay, and I never bothered finding out whether it's actually
inside the call to redisplay_internal.
